Let's have patience to wait

in #prayers7 years ago

At an ATM you put your card on the machine. You enter your password to to prove to the machine that it's yours. You follow all the instructions with patience. You press where you want to withdraw and amount to take. If you press amount more than the balance it tell insufficient funds. However if there is enough funds it tells you to wait. You have to patiently wait for the cash. No one has left money and ATM card due to impatience. You wait until you get the card, cash and the receipt.

Moral Value
The Bible gives us guidelines on what to do in life, like an ATM. We have to follow biblical sayings, if we want to coordinate with God. They are steps we have to take when saying our prayers to God, as they are steps we have to take when withdrawing cash. They are no short cuts when Withdrawing cash, the same to God, no short cuts in our prayers. We have to follow certain procedures to get answers from God. Prayer requests are different as there different account procedures to withdraw.

Do not expect a favorable answer from God if not in good books with Him. Don't expect a favourable reply if you have no relationship with almighty. You do not withdraw where you did not deposit. If you abide by God's conditions you expect favorable reply. It's not always, you get instant cash. Sometimes you are told to wait. The same with God you wait for the ripe time

However be careful when you persist with your prayers . They are time you are told to continue, and at times a different instructions given. If you are told by an ATM to wait, you don't leave the card, cash or receipt because you are in a rush. You have to be patient at every step in your prayers. At least one day your prayer will be answered.. Read Matthew 7:7-12.

You move with faith that you will get cash in an ATM. The same when praying to God you have faith in God's answer. Sometimes prayers are answered promptly. At times they are delayed. Delayed responses may be with a purpose. But I feel all prayers are answered. It depends on what you are asking for. Some prayers need persistence as different accounts need different approaches to withdrawals. Some prayers need fasting etc depending on the situation.

A password on ATM is like proof of your morality before God,Jesus and Holy Spirit. It is the unlocking procedure when starting or ending your prayer. The way you pray determine the procedure and connection with God. So let's pray without ceasing but with patience. IMG-20170726-WA0030.jpgIMG_20170813_144903.jpg
